What do you want an extreme hot weather or rainy summer days. I heard over the radio that there are places in the U.S. with over 50 degrees celsius temperature at the moment. I remembered the summer in Las Vegas during my 2008 vacation there.
I guess I would rather like rainy summer days than extreme hot summer weather like in Las Vegas. Rainy summer days make the plants and flowers in our garden happy.
During our visit in Paris last summer 2010, it was also raining. As long as you have umbrellas and rain coats with you, there is nothing to be afraid off. Here is the Eiffel tower in Paris during rainy summer days!

The last weekend of July is finally over! Here comes August. I believed this month will be a busy month for me due to a lot of things I need to do both online and offline. Besides August is also a special month for me. Guess what? I will let you know about it in my future post probably next week.
For now, let’s go back to the main topic here. I had a wonderful time with friends during our weekend trip in Rhineland Palatinate and Hesse. These are two of the 16 states in Germany. We left last Friday and stayed in a friends house near Heidelberg. Last Saturday after taking our breakfast, we drove to Ramstein and did some shopping. I am happy to already have some girlfriend gifts for christmas. It was a fun shopping because the mall we went to had a lot of items on sale. We did really had a big savings for up to 75% off. Imagine that! A Levis capri that normally cost around 30 Euros is on sale for 4 Euros.
After that shopping escapade, we proceeded to a place near Frankfurt to attend a birthday party. It was again a fun night we had, after the eating, chit-chatting and karaoke singing.
Sunday, we had a lunch in a Chinese restaurant in Heidelberg. Thanks to my friends’ friends for their goodness and hospitality especially for the food and accommodation.
It was truly a wonderful weekend trip!

This is one of the beautiful places I visited in Europe. Monaco is located in the south of France. It is bounded by the French Riviera to the west and the Italian Riviera to the east. It is the second smallest independent state in the world after Vatican.
I had the chance to visit this place almost four months ago. I simply love this place and wish to be backed there in the future.

This is the Port of Monaco, taken during my visit last April 2011…such a lovely place!

Another week is here. I hope everyone had a nice weekend. It is not really so bad for me. I was only complaining of some migraine and backpain. Overall, it was a good one.
I should be done with this post but I am quite having a bit headache now. I was also doing some things offline. I need to do some cleaning and arranging and thanks goodness that I already started it.
Anyway this image was taken as we were boarding a plane from Nuremberg to Rome. The plane was ready for landing. The buildings in Rome were already visible from the airplane window. That is always the reason why I always love to sit near the window so that I can take a breath-taking view outside especially down under. We were about to land in Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport, the largest airport in Italy located in Fiumicino about 35 km away from Rome city-center.

I always pass this store walking from the main train station everytime I go to the Altstadt or Old City part of Munich. Last weekend, I finally went inside Oberpollinger in Munich. It had some renovation as we went there. I never expect that it houses varieties of luxury brands from Gucci to Prada, Louis Vuitton, D&D, Burberry, DKNY, Fossil, Boss, Lacoste, Chanel, Pandora, Chloe and so many more. I was not able to find cigar humidors inside the store. I was searching one to give as a gift to a friend’s husband. Everybody was happy during that shopping escapade in Oberpollinger. My favorite part of the store is located in the 5th floor. Guess what it is? You better go there and find it out. Goodnight folks! The dawn is breaking soon!
